(The ATROCIOUS English Breakfast)(not my pic...you know I wouldnt order this one...)

I've had some realizations lately while Ive been here.

As I go about my day on castings and appointments,I'm always walking (usually running) and taking publictransportation throughout the city.

I've noticed that despite people eatingabsolute trash here on a daily basis,most people I see walking about are fairly fit.

They might have bad skin and their insidesare very likely not the best, but as far as weight goes,they are relatively thin.

Of course if we all stipped down to our undies,the story might sound a bit different, but you get the idea.

And we wonder why clothing is so compulsory...most people don't look that great without it.

Back to the thoughts...Why were they still relatively fit,despite eating cooked crap 3+ times a day?

ACTIVITY. They are constantly walking.Walking up stairs, walking to work and the tube station.

How often do Americans WALK?We wake up, walk to the breakfast table.Walk to our CARS...*hint hint*Walk from our car to our office desk,where we sit all day, and then do it in reverse.

The brits are likely burning at least 500-1000calories more per day by not using cars on a regular basis.Plus, Ive been looking at labels on the back of food productshere, and there is FAR less bad stuff contained within them.

Most ingredients are actual FOOD items...not crazychemical compounds and modified oils and starches.This could be another factor for sure.

Raw fined tuned my look, but I had the disciplineto be active everyday. Whenever I went hometo Minnesota after living in NY, I could feel myknees getting stiffer because I wasnt walking like before.

If you are struggling with weight issues,don't forget that moving around will help your causeFAR quicker than just switching to raw food alone.

Jog in place in front of the TV,listen to an audiobook and go for a powerwalk,do sit-ups in your bed 2-3 times a week.

Consistency is king...persistence will make the difference.

Just a thought...keep it active.And eat those greens!

Oh! One more thing...I just listened to a greatinterview of Jameth Sheridan by Kevin Gianni,and he said that eating UNSPROUTED nuts and seedsarent even enzyme neutral, but enzyme NEGATIVE.

Enzyme inhibitors are found in seeds to keep themdormant until enough moisture is present to wake them up.By eating unsoaked and unsprouted seeds, we are reallydoing ourselves a huge disfavor. Ive been doing thiswith pumpkinseeds here, and I can really tell that I dontfeel as good. Im ready to give up seeds and nuts altogetherand just go with avocados, olives, and the occasional coconut.

I can't tell everyone enough howgreat I feel when I read all the positivecomments lately. Just great...thank you everyone!

London is actually great.This city can be expensive tonewcomers, but if you get the ins and outs,you'll find that its sometimes cheaper than the states.

Ive been eating about 3 persimmons a day.They are called "Kaki fruits" over here, andI get 3 every morning from a guy on the cornerfor $1.5o US. WOW. I bought ONE in NY for $2.50before I left. And avocados are cheaper too!

Another thing...tax is already added to the price onthe menu, and tipping is only 10% max, so if yougo out and compare prices, youll be surprised tolearn that its possibly cheaper to eat out in Londonthan in the states. We went to VitaOrganic today,and its pretty good. We just did the lunch salad bar,and finally a nice green juice.Tesco has great stuff too. I have to get pics going.

There is so much more charm here too,and people are very proper and civilized.Hopefully its not just because there isCCTV (surveillence cameras) EVERYWHERE.

I had all these plans to travel next week,and now we might have to put them on holdbecause there are alot of possible jobs coming.Its just the way it is...you cant really plan.

Anyways...Ive got to run...but a hugethanks for everyone sticking with me on this.

I will likely speak sometime in Parisand hopefully London too...its just a matter of finding the place.We should just get together in the park and talk,no need to buy food or anything. Maybe a bigpotluck in one of the parks here.
